The current models have the look to produced by the same subcontractor. I have two Dell U2410 monitors. One I bought new and is probably about five years old. The other I bought used earlier this year and is probably about two years old. They are basically the same monitor but have different alphabetic suffixes (which I can't locate as yet). Both are regularly calibrated by Spyder 4 and once they have warmed up you can't tell one from the other. I don't know what you are bleating about. Have you any actual experience of a properly calibrated Dell Ultrasharp monitor? -- Regards, Eric Stevens |

I can confirm the problems posted. You might have an other experience with Dell. I've had no complaints about their Ultrasharp monitor series, nor about their monitor service (other monitor type). My monitors are lit by fluorescent tubes. I understand the U2412M is lit by LED. I don't know whether that makes any difference. -- Regards, Eric Stevens |

I can confirm the problems posted. You might have an other experience with Dell. I have read it and done a bit of digging. The complaint of the original poster which started the thread to which you have referred us was using a Dell Ultrasharp display 2007FP. Now, as one of the subsequent posters pointed out, the 2007FP came out no later than 2006. This is at least two generations of screens behind the current range. The complaint was dated June 10, 2014. Further down D Fosse wrote, in response to Tim Lookingbill's post of June 11, 2014 in which Tim stated "which had warm/cool color temp non-uniformity across the screen" - "For Dell this is "within specification" and they will not replace a unit that has this". No indication of what model screen this policy refers to. But if you go back you will find Tim Lookingbill's problem was: " ... my previous LCD was a factory direct refurbed Dell 2209WA replacement for one I bought from some unknown sole proprietor on Amazon which had warm/cool color temp non-uniformity across the screen. The refurbed lasted 3 years before it exhibited distracting oddly shaped dark grid like artifacts in the lower left corner. I bought the LG at Best Buy because I wanted to avoid all the shipping return hassles due to quality variances within the same model". So, whatever the complaint was about it has only the most tenuous of connections to the policy of Dell with respect to their current range of Ultrasharp screens. Your opinion appears to be misguided, at best, or mischievous, at worst. -- Regards, Eric Stevens |

The reason for why Dell QC can't be trusted was in the post that I linked to. EOD. -- teleportation kills http://tinyurl.com/androidphotography |
